FAQ

Under the Minnesota power of attorney statutes, the principal's signature on a Minnesota Power of Attorney document need not be acknowledged before a notary public. However, third parties may require it, and a Minnesota Statutory Short Form Power of Attorney document will look incomplete without such an acknowledgment.

The "principal" is the person who creates a Power of Attorney document, and they give authority to another adult who is called an "attorney-in-fact." The attorney-in-fact does NOT have to be a lawyer and CANNOT act as an attorney for the principal. The attorney-in-fact must be a competent adult (18 years or older).

As in Minnesota, a power of attorney expires when the principal dies. The attorney-in-fact cannot make decisions about the principal's estate unless he or she was named as personal representative.

A Minnesota real estate power of attorney form is a binding document that allows the principal to select an agent to handle the care, sale, refinancing, rent, or leasing duties of their real estate property.

When does a power of attorney end? A mentally competent person can remove a power of attorney at any time with a signed document. If a power of attorney is not removed, it ends with a person's death.

Civil actions (except family cases) need to be filed with the court within one year after service of the summons and complaint on the defendant. See Rule 5.04 of the MN Rules of Civil Procedure.

Except with respect to real estate transactions, a Minnesota Power of Attorney document does not need to be recorded anywhere in order to be effective.

You can specify who you want to make these decisions for you in a legal document, called a health care power of attorney (POA). The person you specify is called a health care agent. (Sometimes people use the word “power of attorney” to describe the person as well as the document.)

Some kinds of property and assets do not need to be probated. These include property owned as joint tenants, jointly held bank accounts, payable-on-death accounts, life insurance proceeds to a specific beneficiary, and pension benefits with a designated beneficiary in the event you die.
